The Journey of the Infinite Wizard
Chapter 809: The Tang people participated in the colonial boom
The progress of the small world's annexation of other small universes is proceeding extremely smoothly under the auspices of Yiningweil. Its size and foundation are also gradually increasing and strengthening as it continues to annex other small universes. In the same way, the world's
The rules are constantly being improved, and various galaxies and planets have begun to appear in the original universe. Moreover, the process of the birth of new planets, the creation of various materials, and the process of birth and combination are all in progress.
As for the flat world blocked by an invisible membrane, its development is also booming. There are more than a dozen large-scale land masses and endless seas, which can be called countless islands. With the vigorous development of the Age of Discovery,
Opening up, the relatively closed world became extremely lively in an instant.
With the opening of various new shipping routes, countless ships are constantly coming and going on the sea, bringing goods from the New World back to the Old Continent, and bringing goods from the Old Continent to the New World. Back and forth,
The sky-high profits generated stimulated a high degree of prosperity in the navigation industry. In order to better occupy the land of the New World and to better connect with the civilizations of the New World, and then conduct trade relations, capable governments began to implement policies from
official colonial activities.
They will occupy some archipelagos as their forward bases, build ports, cities, shipyards and other facilities, relocate the population, and station troops. They will carry out official-level exchanges and trade with those new world countries they have explored, and through constant
Exchange, the civilization of the old world discovers the civilization of the new world and
We have many similarities. The cultural gap between the two sides is not big, and some traditional habits are relatively close, although the beliefs are different. So far, there are still Catholicism, Christianity, Buddhism and Taoism in the countries of the Old World.
Other religions exist. In addition, there is Shinrikyo, which occupies most of Europe and North Africa!
The civilizations of the New World believe in more complicated religions. Some of them believe in their own ancestors, some are still in primitive totem worship, and some believe in various wild gods of unknown origin. The beliefs are so mixed that it can be said to be extremely mixed.
It's messy. However, one thing that makes the people of the Old World happy is that the civilizations of the New World have had frequent exchanges with the legendary high elves. They even have trade activities with the high elves every year.
Goods from the country of high elves will still be enthusiastically sought after by people in the new world. At the same time, high elves will also purchase many supplies in the new world. When the sailors asked people in the new world for news about the high elves, everyone
All of them could answer the questions clearly. They were no strangers to the elves, but few of them had actually seen the elves. According to them, most of the trade between the high elves was with a group of warlock federations that ruled the archipelago. And the direct contact with them was
Transactions are rare.
Therefore, sailors and explorers from the old world were extremely curious about this country whose entire territory was composed of broken islands. While curious, they began to inquire about the so-called warlock country. From what they learned
From the news, they learned that the rulers of this special country were a group of people with extraordinary powers.
Special human beings with great strength. They rule a vast and fertile sea area, a land with thousands of islands, large and small. They are not on the mainland, but on an archipelago. The largest island only covers an area of 100,000 square kilometers.
In addition, there are various islands of different sizes and sizes distributed in the vast sea.
Because of the special nature of the country, the navy of this warlock country is naturally extremely powerful. At the same time, this country is also extremely prosperous. They are richer than the human countries in the New World.
Because of interests and the pursuit of wealth, sailors and explorers from the Old World, under the guidance of human civilization in the New World, began to travel to the land of warlocks. There, they saw a huge naval fleet of different sizes.
I also saw the islands, the huge and majestic cities and the clean and tidy population.
Their arrival also brought new news to the people of the Warlock Country. At this point, they, like the people in the New World, knew that there were other civilizations in the depths of the endless sea. The Warlocks were naturally interested in this news.
, very interested. Everyone is fully interested in the civilization and country they have just learned about.
The first group of explorers and sailors who were lucky enough to come to the Warlock Country began to describe this wonderful country in their diaries. At the same time, they also purchased many unprecedented goods here, and then returned to the old world.
The Europeans' raging craze for sailing and colonization, the new crops and commodities they brought back from the New World, and the shiploads of gold and silver, constantly impacted the nerves of the Tang people, and their products also began to try to impact the Tang people's Mediterranean economic circle.
Therefore, there were divergent opinions within the Tang people as to whether to actively participate in New World exploration activities and colonial movement meetings, which triggered a fierce debate.
"We, the Tang people, sit as the hegemons of the Mediterranean, control the provinces of Upper and Lower Egypt, guard the Suez Canal, and control the East-West trade route. Is it still necessary to carry out a colonial activity targeting the New World? Not to mention, what we heard from Europe
There are rumors of the coming of the new world, although there are
There are many ownerless lands, unknown crops, and gold and silver. In addition, there are many countries that exist, and there are many demons that we don’t know about. So, in the face of such a dangerous and unfamiliar environment, it is necessary to sacrifice my descendants of the Tang Dynasty.
To open up the outside world with your life?"
"We, the Tang Dynasty, have great oceans and special geographical advantages. We have thousands of miles of Tang territory, but our land has not been effectively developed. The population is not crowded on a small land like it was for hundreds of years. The entire territory of our Tang territory is rich in resources.
, Thousands of miles of fertile land, the population has not completely filled the entire territory of our Tang Dynasty
.Now, I want to follow the tide and colonize the outside world. It is inconsistent with my tradition and contrary to my etiquette." The official slightly cupped his hands and said, "I am firmly opposed to this matter. The barbarian land is plagued by diseases and demons are everywhere, so rashly
Going there will be detrimental to my people. Please, Your Majesty, think twice before you act!"
The young Tang Emperor nodded slightly. Unexpectedly, one of the officials who had taken action immediately stood up to argue. He first saluted the Tang Emperor and then said, "According to what is now Europe, the new continent that has been agitated. It is said that its vast land is tens of thousands of miles away, thousands of miles away."
Fertile soil abounds, resources are abundant, and gold and silver are everywhere. There are also many uncontacted countries.
, the overseas undertakings of our Datang Dynasty were prosperous, far surpassing that of the Old Song Dynasty, and our overseas territories were countless. Although we were sitting on the main trade route between the East and the West, foreign barbarians had been trying to break the dominance of the Tang Dynasty in monopolizing east-west trade for hundreds of years.
Now, they have discovered the New World, and it is said that they have also visited the legendary elven kingdom."
"Although our trade in Suez is prosperous, we make millions of dollars every day, and our treasury and granaries are piled up. However, the items from the New World still make our Mediterranean trade status in the Tang Dynasty gradually begin to shake. In recent days, people who come to our port to trade
The number of ships has been reduced by three levels compared to before! If we, the Tang Dynasty, do not participate in this, we will gradually decline and eventually lose our position as a trade hegemon."
After hearing this, Emperor Tang's pupils suddenly shrank. This was the most nervous thing for him. The reason why the country's subjects are so wealthy is due to the Suez Canal, and these days there are three fewer ships trading in the Mediterranean than before, so the loss
Taxes are an astronomical amount of money. It may not matter at first, but in the long run, the consequences will be catastrophic.
